ADF table and ADF form on the same view object

Hi,
As per the ADF demos available on ADF site, I created a jsf page with 2 panels. One panel is an ADF table based on a view object. And the other panel is and ADF form based on the same view object. My requirement is that as I scroll through the records in the ADF table, the ADF Form should dynamically display the details of the record in the ADF table. My understanding is that this should be automatic. However, its not working as expected. What have I missed?

Hi,
Apply PPR for form that displays details.
Like :
<af:table id="t3">
</af:table>
<af:panelFormLayout id="pfl2" partialTriggers="t3">
</af:panelFormLayout >

JDev 11g TP4: ADF tables and ADF form pop-ups PPR?

I was hoping somebody could help me with the following please.
I'm currently having a bit of an issue with ADF tables and ADF forms embedded in a pop-up, where the wrong record is shown in the popup. I suspect it's a PPR problem but am unsure. My scenario:
1) I have the following table:
CREATE TABLE "CHRIS_MUIR_DELETE_ME" (
"ID" NUMBER(5,0)
"SOME_COLUMN" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
CONSTRAINT "CHRIS_MUIR_DELETE_ME_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("ID"));2) I have a default ADF BC EO/VO combination for this table.
3) I have an ADF Faces RC page with a read-only table based on this VO:
<af:table value="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.collectionModel}" var="row"
   rows="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.rangeSize}"
   emptyText="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.viewable ? 'No rows yet.' : 'Access Denied.'}"
   fetchSize="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.rangeSize}"
   selectedRowKeys="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.collectionModel.selectedRow}"
   selectionListener="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.collectionModel.makeCurrent}"
   rowSelection="single" partialTriggers="myDialog">
<af:column sortProperty="Id" sortable="false"
    headerText="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.hints.Id.label}">
     <af:outputText value="#{row.Id}">
        <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.hints.Id.format}"/>
     </af:outputText>
</af:column>
<af:column sortProperty="SomeColumn" sortable="false"
     headerText="#{bindings.ChrisMuirDeleteMeView.hints.SomeColumn.label}">
    <af:outputText value="#{row.SomeColumn}"/>
</af:column>
</af:table>Note that rowSelection is set to "single".
3) The page also includes a popup-dialog combo that shows the same data from the table (ie. they're based on the same VO) as an ADF Input Form:
<af:popup id="myPopUp">
<af:dialog type="okCancel" id="myDialog">
     <af:panelFormLayout>
        <af:inputText value="#{bindings.Id.inputValue}"
            label="#{bindings.Id.hints.label}"
            required="#{bindings.Id.hints.mandatory}">
           <f:validator binding="#{bindings.Id.validator}"/>
           <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#{bindings.Id.format}"/>
        </af:inputText>
        <af:inputText value="#{bindings.SomeColumn.inputValue}"
            label="#{bindings.SomeColumn.hints.label}"
            required="#{bindings.SomeColumn.hints.mandatory}"/>
        </af:inputText>
     </af:panelFormLayout>
</af:dialog>
</af:popup>Note that the table's partialTriggers is set to the id of the dialog. This implies on return from the dialog, the table will update itself to reflect any changes.
4) I have a data bound Create commandButton, + a simple Edit commandButton. The Edit button includes an <af:showPopupBehavior> to display the popup:
<af:commandButton
    actionListener="#{bindings.Create.execute}" text="Create"
    disabled="#{!bindings.Create.enabled}"
    partialTriggers="table1"/>
<af:commandButton text="Edit">
    <af:showPopupBehavior popupId="myPopUp"/>
</af:commandButton>If you run the form with the following steps, you can reproduce my issue:
1) Click the create button, this will create a blank record in the <af:table>
2) Click the edit button and give the 2 fields values, press ok. Note this is reflected back in the table.
3) Click the create button, you will now see another blank record in the <af:table>. Note that the current row selection highlight is on the new record.
4) In the table select the original record, then the Edit button. Oddly the input form is showing the blank record, not the original record even though we selected it in the <af:table>
This implies to me that I have to hook up a PPR event such that the fields on the popup know to update themselves when the user selects a new row in the table.
I've tried setting the partialTriggers property for the popup, dialog and individual fields on the popup page to the table id, but this doesn't seem to work.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how I'm meant to hook up the partialTriggers in this case? I'm at a bit of a loss to know what to do to solve this issue. Is it possible the table selectionListener isn't working?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
CM.

G'day gang
This morning I had a chance to play with Pavle's suggestions, specifically the popup contentDelivery option, and it's solved the issue. Specifically changing the contentDelivery option to lazyUncached was the golden solution.
As the popup component help states, the default functionality is: "lazy -- the default strategy described above. The content isn't loaded until you show the popup once, but then is cached."
....cached being the issue I was seeing.....
While the lazyUncached options states: "lazyUncached -- the content isn't loaded until you show the popup, and then is re-fetched every subsequent time you show the popup. Use this strategy if the popup shows data that can become stale."
The nasty thing about the lazy option is the fact that in the dialog it can show the previous cached result (even though you've selected a different record), and you can even appear to edit that cached result in the dialog, but when you press okay in the dialog and return to the previous table, it's updated the record you selected, not the cached result.
Confusing, but not a bug if you understand the popup contentDelivery options.
Frank, if you'd like it, I have the simple test case available to send you. But as it's not a bug I wont send it to you unless requested.
Thanks to both of you for your assistance with this one. Once again your help is much appreciated! :)
I'll take time out to blog about this in the next few weeks to assist others.
Thanks & regards,

Different LOVs in af:query and af:form for the same VO attribute

Hi,
We need to display different LOVs in af:query and af:form for the same attribute in VO.
Is it possible to use LOV Switcher for this ?
What condition can we use in LOV Switcher attribute to check if it is View Critearia row or VO row ?

We have a VO attribute "User" which needs to be displayed as LOV in a Search Panel ( af:query component created using View Critearia ) and in a af:form.
When this VO attribute is displayed in search panel, in LOV, we need to show all users.
When this VO attribute "User" is displayed in a form for editing, in LOV, we need to show only active users.
For this, we created two LOVs "ActiveUsersLOV" ( which shows only active users ) and "AllUsersLOV" ( which shows all users ) on VO attribute "User".
LOVSwitcher attribute should return "ActiveUsersLOV" if the LOV is displayed in form and "AllUsersLOV" if the LOV is displayed in search panel.

Hi Josué Cruz,
Insert the 'Interactive Form' UI element in the desired view.
And bind its 'pdfSource' property to the context atribute pdf source. Optionally, you can set height and width of the form.

Selecting from one table and Update another in the same Page

Could someone help me with this HTMLDB task. In my page design, I am selecting data from two tables (masters: DEPT, EMP) which I want to display on the left column of the page and at the same time a user would be able to update another table (ATTENDANCE:with many children) which would have a radiogroup on the right side for each value of the master such as employee name. The placement of data has to appear in corresponding rows on the page. For instance, employee names of the master table must appear on the same row with its corresponding child value. The page would be grouped by DEPT_NO. The user would click on the department name, a new page with the employee name would apprar. From that page, the user would then update attendance column for each employee in that department. In this operation, it is only the ATTENDANCE table that is being updated. I can send out more information about the structure of the tables if you need more information. I tried many HTMLDB options, forms, reports, etc. I have not been able to get quite right. Your help will be appreciated.

Raju,
Thanks for responding to my problem. I have actually tried using the example on how-to you sent me a link to but it did not help as I expected. You see, the page would be updated every meeting date for each employee. I can send you more information about the table structure if you like. However, let me see if this will help you a bit.
Tables are: 1) Dept [dept_no (pk),dept_name] 2) EMP [emp_no (pk),emp_name, dept_no(fk)] 3) Meetings [meet_key(pk),attended, meeting_date, emp_no(fk)]
What I want to do is create two pages, one would list the departments, when a user selects a department, the user would be linked to a meeting attandance page. The meeting attendance page would list department name once, Meeting date once, and then list employees in that department. At the right column of every employee would be a checkbox for meeting.attended for update. The meeting_date would be pre-populated so that what the user would do is just check Yes/NO. The second page is the one I'm having the most problem with.
If I can do a fetch from dept, emp, and meetings and then do an update on the Meetings table on the same page, I think that might solve the problem. That was how I solved it in MS Access three years ago.
Here is email address in case you want to contact me directly. [email protected]
Thanks again for your help.

Can we have Manual Form and Tabular form in the same page..

Hi,
Is it possible to create a form manually with Save/Apply Change button and another Tabular form using wizard on the same page such that -
if we click the save button on the manulaly created form , it should save the data present in manual form as well as Tabular form...
Edited by: Apex_Noob on Mar 21, 2009 5:58 AM

Hi Dan,
My table structure is :
Process
process_id ( number primary key )
process_owner ( number which represent the user who is responsible for the process)
category_id ( number )
focus_area ( number )
frequency ( number )
process_description ( varchar2 )
Process Region
process_id ( number )
region_id ( number )
Process_website
id (number primary key)
process_id ( number)
web_address ( varcahr2 )
Above is the struct of part of my DB.
At present my manual form does the following :-
When users click on SAVE button , it run PAGE PROCESS , ADD_PROCESS
In ADD_PROCESS ,
I have following logic to insert into process table
Select seq.next_val into temp_variable from dual; - This is the process_id
insert into process values ( temp_variable , :p2_process_owner , :p2_cateogory , .... )
to insert into region i used the following logic ( Region is displyed as check box :p2_region north=1 , south=2 ,east = 3 and west = 4)
l_vc_arr2 := APEX_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE(:P2_REGION);
    FOR z IN 1..l_vc_arr2.count LOOP
       INSERT INTO "REGION" VALUES
       ( temp_variable ,
         l_vc_arr2(z));
    END LOOP;
END;Now as I told, I want to have three text field where user will enter web_address and it should be added to process_website table
Thanks a ton for all your help

Expand, unhide table and set variable at the same time?

Hi all,
How should i go about to create the following?
I want to Expand a table at the same time as i set at variable and unhide another table. I have implemented a single-click solution i the Table API that works fine. I would like to use the Table API for this problem also.
Is this possible? Do I need to make it in multiple steps ie some kind of java-script?
Have tried this but it wont work:
SAP_BW_URL_Get() + ' ' ''&DATA_PROVIDER=DATAPROVIDER_1&' 'CMD=Expand&IOBJNM=0MATERIAL&FILTER_IOBJNM=0CUSTOMER&FILTER_VALUE=' I_CHAVL '&VAR_NAME_1=ZLS_CUST&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=' I_CHAVL '&CMD_1=ITEM%3DTABLE_2%26HIDDEN%3D' ''''
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Max

Hi Alex,
This is not written in the WAD, but in the Table API. The table API generates the link, creating a JavaScript call. But i hvae also tried to write this url directly in the WAD on an http://.... format but it still does not work.

Database Table and LDAP Authentication in the same repository?

I'm wondering if it's possible to authenticate through database tables for some users and LDAP for other users. I can configure each one separately but I'm curious if anyone has ever successfully done both in the same repository.
Thanks,
-Matt

Another thing to try is this. I don't have an LDAP server here but it worked for me without LDAP. I think it should also work with LDAP as it is the same idea. I don't think there is a way to have a conditional Init Blocks. Also you can't have two init blocks setting the same variable (USER in our case). But what you can do is to have two Init Blocks, one for LDAP authentication and the other one for table authentication. So you could have this scenario:
1) LDAP "authentication" init block sets custom variable LDAP_USER
2) Table "authentication" init block sets custom variable TABLE_USER
3) Final authentication init block (the real one) sets USER variable using something like this:
SELECT CASE WHEN ':USER' = 'SOME STRING' THEN ':LDAP_USER'
ELSE ':TABLE_USER'
END
FROM DUAL
WHERE CASE WHEN ':USER' = 'SOME STRING' THEN ':LDAP_USER'
ELSE ':TABLE_USER'
END = ':USER'
Note how I use the CASE statement both to return the user value I want the USER variable to be set and also in the WHERE clause to make sure no rows are returned in case authentication fails (which should return no rows to denote a failed authentication). Obviously you need to set the init block dependancies correctly. I did a quick test with users coming from two separate Oracle tables in 2 init biocks and it worked fine for me. Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Two iterators based on the same view issue

Hi
I'm using jdev11.1.1.2
My requirement is to have a view object as a form on the page (with next, previous, create/delete buttons)
and to have a popup with the same view object as a readonly table (only for taking a look at a table representation of the view)
So we have iterator A , that the form is based on it, and Iterator B that the table is based on it- both iterators based on the same view object.
My problem is that if I popup the table and enter some filter there (my table is filterable) this filter is applied to the form also. I wont these two iterrators not to interfere with one another.
What is the bast way to do that ?
Thanks
a.gruev

Since you have same view object changes in 1 iterrator will also change the other.
You would need 2 view objects to do that.

How to Create an Input Form using a Transient View Object?

I would like to use a Transient View Object to store data from input forms across a multiple-page enrollment process.
My question is how to I create the input form using the Transient View Object on the .jspx page? Do I drag/drop an ADF creation form onto the page? Or, use a regular ADF form? Do I need to create the initial row progammatically?
Just looking for some general directions or set of instructions? I've looked at the SRDemo example (Globals Transient View Object), but I'm not sure how they created the page at design time?
thanks

Well following the SRDemo example, this seems to work:
1. Create Transient View Object
2. Add to Application Module as a Data control
3. Add to .jspx page as an ADF Form (not as an ADF Create Form)
4. Add following code to Application Module containting Transient VO instance:
protected void prepareSession(Session session) {
super.prepareSession(session);
insertTransientViewObjRows();
private void insertTransientViewObjRows() {
ViewObject transientvo = getViewObj1();
transientvo.clearCache();
transientvo.insertRow(transientvo.createRow());
}

Display and edit currently selected row of ADF Table in ADF Form

I have an ADF Read-only Table and ADF Form, which were created from the same Data Control.
I need to be able to edit the selected row of the table in the form (just like in "Binding Data Controls to your JSF page" part of "Developing RIA Web Applications with Oracle ADF" Tutorial). However, I can't figure out how to do this :(
I found the following solution on the Web: #{bindings.DeptView1.currentRow.dataProvider.dname} - but it doesn't work, since "the class oracle.jbo.server.ViewRowImpl does not have the property dataProvider".
Sorry for the newbie question.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,
AFAIK, dataProvider is not supported on ADF BC, hence the error.
If you have created ADF Read only table and form from the same data control you just need to refresh the form based on table selection to show up the selected record, to do which you just need to add partialTriggers property to the panelFormLayout and set its value to the id of table

ADF Drag and drop event inside the single af:treetable

Hi Experts,
I have a af:treeTable in my ADF web project and i would like to implement the drag and drop event to the same tree table for supporting my sample test project use case. Currently i am facing some issue to get the source tree node and the destination tree node of the drop and drop event inside my drop listener method. How can i get those object since i need to perform some business operation inside the listener. Please note that i am not using ADF BC4j in my project. The service layer is implemented as EJB and it's being called from the backing bean.
Looking forward some guide lines to resolve this issue from you experts.
Thank you.

It's not a perfect solution, but a work in progress that i'm currently using in my backing bean:
private RichTree navTree;
private void exitContainers() {
boolean success = false;
while (!success) {
try {
navTree.exitContainer();
} catch (Exception e) {
success = true;
private void clearDisclosedRowKeys() {
if (navTree != null && navTree.getDisclosedRowKeys() != null) {
RowKeySet rks = navTree.getDisclosedRowKeys();
Iterator rksIter = rks.iterator();
while (rksIter.hasNext()) {
exitContainers();
List<Integer> rowkey = (List<Integer>) rksIter.next();
List<Integer> newRowkey = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for (Integer row : rowkey) {
if (navTree.isRowAvailable(row)) {
navTree.setRowIndex(row);
navTree.enterContainer();
newRowkey.add(row);
} else {
// Row is no longer available
break;
if (newRowkey.size() == 0) {
rks.remove(rowkey);
} else {
rowkey.clear();
rowkey.addAll(newRowkey);
Whenever you make a 'delete' or 'move' in the tree, call clearDisclosedRowKeys(), it will remove anything that's no longer valid, so your tree won't collapse, and you won't get the error anymore.
I took out my logging and debug statements, but essentially this just gets all the rows, checks to see if they're valid, and if so creates a new RowKeySet with the valid rows in it.
Of course make sure you have the setNavTree and getNavTree accessor's created and that they're bound in your JSFF, otherwise navTree will always be null.
I haven't yet found a way to 'nicely' find out if you're at the top level container, so i'm relying on an Exception to occur to give me that information, if anyone knows a better solution please feel free to share it.

Running Forms and Oracle 9i on the same PC

Some time ago I installed Oracle 8 and Forms and Reports 6i on the same PC (Windows 2000). I did specify a different ORA home for the Forms product to the database product. I believe this means that your registry is set to access one, probably your database, and not the other. My instructor on the Forms course I had attended, said the old 2.5 version of Forms and personal editions of Oracle would work together on the same PC, but Oracle have prevented this being possible in later releases, by having this ORA home issue. I failed to find a work round and no-one replied to my quey on the issue.
Do the latest dowloads, Oracle 9i, etc. allow you to run both the database and Forms on the same PC and if so are there any tips for me in installing them so it will actually work?
Many thanks,
Susan

Hi there,
installing 6i for 8i on the same box is not a problem. I find it better, on a personal pc to have them in different homes.
- create a folder called 'Oracle6i'
- when prompted for the install home - point to this new directory
once the installation is complete you will need to copy the tnsnames.ora file from the oracle database home and paste it into the corresponding directory of the oracle6i installation.

Monthly and Yearly info on the same Pivot Table

Hi everyone,
I have a couple of questions.
1) I want to show the same results by month and by year on the same pivot table. Is there any way this can be done?
2) I would also like to show data on graphs by month. To do this i have added my date field to the table (hidden) and used the function MONTHNAME(expr). This works fine except that any transactions in April 2007 get grouped with any transactions in April 2008, and the same with the rest of the months. Is there any MONTHYEAR function or the like, that differentiates between months from different years?
Any help would be great!
Thanks

1) I believe you need 2 pivot tables
2) Can you give me more details on which object and which date you are using? I think it should be possible to get the required output.

Nsert/Update and Add Column at the same Table and at the "same" Time

Hello,
I want Insert/Update and Add Column at the same Table and at the "same" Time but in different sessions.
Example:
At first the "insert/update" statement:
Insert into TestTable (Testid,Value) values (1,5105);
After that the "add" statement:
Alter table TestTable add TestColumn number;
- sadly now I get the message: ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
"insert/update" statement:
Insert into TestTable (Testid,Value) values (2,1135);
After that the execute commit.
I don't know when the first session set the commit statement so I want that the DB the "Alter Table..." statement execute if it's possible.
If it's possible I want to save a repeat loop with the "Alter Table..." statemtent.
Thanks for ideas

Well I want to walk in the rain without and umbrella and still stay dry, but it ain't gonna happen.
You can't run a DDL statement against a table with transactions pending. Session 2 has to wait until session commits or rollbacks (or until the session is killed). That's just the way it is.
This makes sense if you think about it. The data dictionary has to be consistent across all sessions. If session 2 was allowed to change the table structure whilst session 1 has a pending transaction then the database is in an inconsistent state. This is easier to see if you consider the reverse situation - the ALTER TABLE statement run by session 2 does a DROP COLUMN TESTID rather than adding a column: now what should happen to session 1's INSERT statement? You have retrospectively invalidated a statement that was perfectly legal when it was executed.
If it's possible I want to save a repeat loop with the "Alter Table..." statemtent.Fnord.
Cheers, APC
